It's quite ridiculous actually, on the lowest setting the lighting is less than 8 meters in front of the car. I can only get some visibility when the car is loaded. And even then, the beam power is a pity.
Lighting on high beam is just correct, nothing to get excited about.

Just my opinion, but if I were to fork out for better lighting, I'd fork out all the way and go Xenon.
Manu,

Are Xenon lights available for the W124? Any details appreciated!
